Canyonlands Camping with Christian

We decided at the last minute to do a quick camping trip over the weekend and spent one night close to Canyonlands NP. It was mostly fun - David is still having trouble sleeping in the tent....but everything else was great. Kelsey found lots of bug friends - she named her two beetles Jennifer and Melissa...they were probably happy to see us drive off - also two grasshoppers, many ant hills, and found a spider or two...we're working on just watching the spiders and not touching them. Gorgeous camping spot and also had a chance to take a look at Horseshoe Canyon, Goblin Valley and Little Wild Horse Canyon. Fun to show Christian all of the adventures to be had in Southern Utah! 











Darkling Beetles - Kelsey named them 'Melissa' & 'Jennifer'...











Last Day of Preschool...sniff, sniff

Camping in Moab

We went camping last weekend and it was mostly fun...its going to take some practice for David to feel more comfortable sleeping with us in the tent. He was SOOO excited about everything it took forever for him to settle down - he loved the chirping crickets. Other than that, it was a fantastic weekend! We camped with some friends and took some hikes - lots of exploring, rock hunting, lizard catching, red ant watching, scrambling, and digging in the dirt - success : )
